Kinda Back

We FINALLY got home at around 10:30pm on the 6th. You people are all awesome for your warm wishes. I'm still dealing with a few things - nothing major, but trying to be more reasonable with energy expectations of myself in the meantime. Baby couldn't be better. Hub is an amazing father, and I'm a lot in love.

I'm also a lot in awe that I did THAT. More soon. Promise. Babybutt hungry.

Yay, Yay, Yay! Congratulations, Mama! Don't try to push yourself too hard, just keep in mind what you just pushed out!! It's so hard to not want to jump right back into things, but you deserve this break and time to get to know your baby. Dishes will wait, and so will everything else but him. :)

Welcome home! And rest, I think that was my fatal error.

Chelle said...

CONGRATS! I was thinking about you this morning and how you had your little Baby Butt. Welcome to motherhood! The best days are all ahead.

Enjoy your little man!

*BIG hugs!*

Yay, you're home! DEFINITELY take it easy. You know I wouldn't tell you that unless I had good advice to give - and you know how Type-A and high energy I am. I realize now that I should have sat still a lot more in the first week - I was running around like I had never given birth and it just tired me out even more. I know how tough it is to sit still when there are dishes in the sink and "just a few more things" you want to take care of, but you'll do so much better if you take it easy and sleep when you can. :-) Love you!!

Congratulations, Barb! Thanks for saying hello, I am happy to hear you are home and everyone is doing well. And a lot in love!

Take it easy. Rest and bond. As much as I wanted to gush to the internets what a precious, wonderful, adorable baby I had, it just wasn't a priority. You are a Mom now for goodness sakes! Just know we're all thinking of you and we'll still be here when you get back.

Give Babybutt some love from me and Skeeter!
